system crashed when I was updaring portage... great... anyways...
if I try to emerge anything I get the following error:
| Code: |
Performing Global Updates: /usr/portage/profiles/updates/3Q-2006
(Could take a couple of minutes if you have a lot of binary packages.)
.='update pass' *='binary update' @='/var/db move'
s='/var/db SLOT move' S='binary SLOT move' p='update /etc/portage/package.*'
........
pTraceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/emerge", line 4049, in ?

no matter what I type infront of emerge, thats what I get.
So i tried to manually fix it using this guide http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/doc/manually-fixing-portage.xml and when I get to:
| Code: |
cd /root/portage-recover/portage-2.1-r2
cp -R pym bin /usr/lib/portage/
|
I get:
| Code: |
cp: cannot stat `pym': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat `bin': No such file or directory
|
so yeha, I don't know what else to do. I did revdep-rebuild but it failed while it was tryin to emerge some stuff.

post the output of | Code: | | ls -la /root/portage-recover/portage-2.1-r2 |
you are either extracting the package wrong or to a wrong place, but the package definitely contains those folders
